Evaluation of industrial palm oil sludge as an effective green adsorbing substrate for toxic aqueous cadmium removal

Palm oil sludge (POS), an industrial waste from the palm oil industry, was utilised as a new adsorbent for the removal of toxic cadmium (Cd2+). Response surface methodology was carried out to investigate the effects of initial concentration (C0), contact time (t), dosage (W) and pH and optimise the...
